Purchasing Belgraviums Atlanta 8000 series handheld terminals and the LocateIT warehouse management system by leading logistics solution providers Clandestine Software, the terminals will be utilised throughout the whole of Symington Leeds warehouse facility including picking, packing and production. The Atlanta 8000 Series was chosen as a user-friendly, fit for purpose and robust terminal, and in conjunction with LocateIT will help to provide Symingtons with the functionality and flexibility which is critical in helping deliver a quality and reliable service to its customers. Helping increase productivity and staff efficiencies, the system will help reduce costs and increase profitability which will enable Symingtons to maintain growth and continue providing customers with high levels of service and innovation.
